More quotes by Tony Evans
If the Lord is your shepherd, He is sufficient for all your needs.
Tony Evans
If God can't get the attention of the church house, He's certainly not going to stop by the White House.
Tony Evans
You cannot read the Bible and ignore the political realm.

The first thing you do is sit down with your wife and say something like this, Honey, I've made a terrible mistake. I've given you my role. I gave up leading this family. ... I'm not suggesting that you ask for your role back, I'm urging you to take it back ... Be sensitive. Listen. Treat the lady gently and lovingly. But lead!
Tony Evans
The primary role of the church is to reflect God's value system in society and to train people in that value system. It's not the government's responsibility, nor are they equipped to do that on the most local level where the need exists.
Tony Evans
Faith is acting like God is telling the truth.
Tony Evans
It often takes the darkness of a storm to show us the light of God's presence.
Tony Evans
God only promises to bless the nation that recognizes His authority.
Tony Evans
Trials are to see if you believe what you say you believe.

Many, if not most, Christians begin with the wrong question of who they should vote for rather than the more important question of how they should vote.
Tony Evans
Paul, we are going to kill you. That is cool, then I will go to Christ. Ok Paul, we are going to let you live. That is great, then I can witness Christ. Ok, then we will torture you. That is fine, then I will receive a reward in Heaven one day.

In fact, it is precisely because we have changed books that the chaos in our country has gotten worse than ever before.
Tony Evans
Unless God and His revealed Word is the overarching influencer and rationale over how our electoral decisions are made as believers, then we cannot expect God to be the overarching influencer in our nation.
Tony Evans
As a believer and a child of the King, to consider casting a vote for someone or for something that would go against what God would vote for ought to be out of the question.
Tony Evans
Jesus didn't wait until we got better to die for us. He died when we were in our most unlovely state. The person who doesn't deserve love actually needs love more, not less. If you know someone unworthy of love, that's great! You now have a chance to emulate Christ, because the essence of His love is unconditional.
Tony Evans
One of the reasons so many singles are dissatisfied is that they're looking for a change in status to define their significance, rather than finding a purpose in life, granted by God, that gives them significance regardless of the status they're in.
Tony Evans
Faith is not about how much you believe in what you believe. Faith is about believing that the One you believe in is believable.
Tony Evans
Churches are having a limited impact on society because they fail to understand that the goal of the church is not the church itself but the kingdom.
Tony Evans
One day I was in an airport rushing to catch a plane. I was sweating and puffing when I looked to my right and saw a man walking half as fast as I was, but going faster. He was walking on a moving sidewalk. When we walk in the Spirit, eh comes underneath us and bears us along. We're still walking, but we walk dependent on him.
Tony Evans
When you understand the values of God's kingdom, you will best understand His agenda.4 However, it is my conviction that the message of the kingdom, and the values therein, are sorely lacking in understanding today.
